2-Wheel Balancing Robot Kit

A self-balancing two-wheel robot platform kit based on an open-source balancing algorithm running on Arduino. The kit includes a DFRduino Uno R3, 6 DOF IMU shield, dual 12V DC motors with encoders, analog rotation sensors, and a dual motor driver — everything you need to build and program a balancing robot.

The custom acrylic chassis is easy to assemble and provides mounting space for additional modules like wireless communication (XBee, Bluetooth) or other sensors, making it an expandable platform for learning robotics and control theory.
